The 1999 SkyBox Premium set was issued in one series for a total of 350 cards and distributed in eight-card packs with a suggested retail price of $2.69. The set features color action player photos with a team colored action-trail and gold-foil stamping. The set contains the following subsets: Spring Fling (273-297) and two versions of the 50 Rookies. In an effoty to satisfy fans of both complete sets and short-printed Rookie Cards, dual version rookie and prospect cards were created. The commonly available versions feature close-up shots of the players and these are considered the true Rookie Card. The short-printed versions feature full-body action shots and are seeded at a rate of one in eight packs. Both versions of these cards are numbered but we've added an "S" suffix on the short-prints for checklisting purposes. Notable Rookie Cards include Pat Burrell and Freddy Garcia. [Collapse]
